Description

org.apache.james.util.NetMacher should be able to accept and match IPv6 network specifications to support relaying of mail that comes in over IPv6. This should add IPv6 support to the AuthorizedAdresses configuration and likely to most subclasses of AbstractNetworkMatcher as well.

IP v6 introduced with http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=954226&view=rev
Currently, the IP address must be completely specified (not shortened, as for example ::1) in the Matcher config.
The patch is currently enough to further implement IPv6 support with JAMES-403 and JAMES-405.
It is worth to come back later one to validate the complete James IPv6 support and to support the complete IPv6 syntax.
Therefor, the issue is not closed.
It is however of enough quality to support IPv6 matchers.
